Register: Lessons in turning research into real world impact presentation

Join Katherine Ku, former Executive Director of Stanford University’s Office of Technology Licensing for an inspiring presentation on how researchers can take their discoveries beyond the university and create meaningful real-world impact.

Drawing on remarkable examples from Stanford’s innovation journey, including foundational gene-splicing technology and the university search engine that became Google, Katherine will share insights into how promising research can develop into technologies, companies and solutions that benefit society.  Discover what can help research attract commercial interest, why it is valuable to consider potential applications early, and how researchers can work with commercialisation teams, industry partners and investors to advance an idea.

If you are curious about where your discoveries could lead, this presentation offers a rare opportunity to learn from one of the world’s most experienced university innovation leaders.
